The Sword - Apocryphon (2012) (Ltd.Edition, CD from DLP Release) Music

Posted by Necromandus at Nov. 7, 2012

Over the course of 3 mind altering, critically praised albums, THE SWORD have proved to be one of rock’s most intriguing bands. Part Sabbath, part Melvins, part Slayer, the band has already created a body of enormous riffery that has crushed ear drums the world over. On their new album "Apocryphon", the band has taken the best elements from each of their previous albums and made an album that is the most fluid and heavy of the band’s career.

Lemuria might not sound like they are from Buffalo, NY, but the band was proudly birthed there, following the legacy of an oddly eclectic, if not eccentric, music scene. When you loosen your ears to the sugary indie-pop, you'll discover discordant notes, odd time signatures, and brutal riffs creating menacing yet catchy music. Their most mature and best effort to date, The Distance Is So Big was recorded at the Magpie Cage with J Robbins (Against Me!, Jawbreaker, The Promise Ring) earlier this year.

J.J. Cale - Okie (1974) Music

J.J. Cale - Okie (1974)

J.J. Cale is a treasure. While superficial entertainment celebrities come and go, enjoying their five minutes of fame, copying the latest quickly forgotten thing, J.J. Cale keeps rocking on. His sound is like no one else. A little country, a little blues, a little rock and roll, Cale's sound is all his own. In a culture, which constantly proclaims the virtues of non-conformity, by dozens of utterly predictable, conformist entertainers, Cale is the real deal. In a culture which constantly proclaims the joys of excess, Cale's sound is always precise, under-stated and the definition of cool. This 3rd album of his is one of his best. A series of quiet, under-stated pieces, the album, of course, got absolutely zero air time. Who cares. Here we are, decades after it was recorded, and every tune is still fresh and new.

The J. Geils band - Anthology: Houseparty (1993) REPOST Music

The J. Geils band - Anthology: Houseparty (1993)
Rock | 2cd | EAC Rip | Wv + Cue + Log | covers
Rhino, R2 71164 | rem: 1993 | 995Mb

The superb two-disc anthology Houseparty concentrates on the rousing, full-throttle blues-boogie of their heyday, including a full album's worth of live material (ten songs from their three live albums). The pop success of "Love Stinks" and "Freeze Frame" makes sense in the context of the set, but the songs that cut the deepest are the blues-rock numbers on the first disc and the live songs.

The superb two-disc anthology Houseparty concentrates on the rousing, full-throttle blues-boogie of their heyday, including a full album's worth of live material (ten songs from their three live albums). The pop success of "Love Stinks" and "Freeze Frame" makes sense in the context of the set, but the songs that cut the deepest are the blues-rock numbers on the first disc and the live songs. Thankfully, the compilers (Trouser Press editor Ira Robbins and bandmembers Peter Wolf and Seth Justman) end Houseparty with three songs from Sanctuary, helping secure the image of the J. Geils Band as one of America's top rock & roll groups.

Lemuria - Recreational Hate (2017) Music

Posted by Domestos at Dec. 22, 2017

The Buffalo band Lemuria didn’t release their debut album until 2008, but they started in 2004. And they’ve always sounded something like 2004, or at least like my version of 2004. That means they sound like Spock haircuts, like H&M sweaters, like road trips in beat-up cars that still have tape decks instead of CD players, like Yeungling, like crushed-up Ritalin, like back issues of Optic Nerve scattered around bedroom floors, like semi-ironically getting really into The O.C. and American Idol, like browsing music writers’ blogs in the endless downtime at my office job, like signing up for Netflix only because the local neighborhood video-rental place doesn’t have Jaws 3. I am, as you’ve probably already figured out, pretty ridiculously sentimental about this period in my life, and I hear that sentimentality mirrored back to me in Lemuria’s plainspoken, harmony-rich, vaguely emo DIY music.
